You can still have targeted announcements, you can send direct messages over twitter.
You are correct though, your customer list is available for anyone to see-not sure if protecting your tweets will hide your followers from non-followers. There is definitely no way to prevent other followers from seeing each other. Joel Barnard Niagara Wireless Internet Co.

You dont want to remind customers that are running reliably, that you constantly have problems on other parts of your network, when you need to notify those other parts of your network. I also dont want customers putting themselves on lists, because I want to make sure they are only on the lists that will apply to them, and they might not have the inside knowledge to know which lists those are. I also dont want competitors on the list, seeing info that isn't any of their business.

Customers who are interested in network status updates can follow the Twitter page, and subscribe to text messages. When there's a problem you just tweet manually or use API for automated things.

Nix, Jr Sent: Thursday, September 08, 2011 10:48 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Bulk text alerts Does anyone use or know of an application or service for sending bulk text messages. We would like a one time pay vs. pay per message. What we would like to accomplish is create a group message for network status alerts that go out via text message to customers that wish to receive such.
